    Best Heathrow Terminal 3 First Class Lounge QF ?

    The BA/QF lounge is definitely the only choice, quality wise, great alcohol selection and although the lounge room is now open slather, its quite nice... Nothing really compares to the QF Flounges though... I briefly (sub 5 minutes) visited the EK, CX and AA lounges... Funny experience...

    Advice on champagne

    We were drinking Bolly in the Mel F Lounge, followed by Pol Roger in flight, and then the ever so delicious Moet (stock standard race course moet) in the DXB F Lounge, Pol Roger back onboard again, then Tattinger in the LHR T3 FLounge.... Does something seem wrong in this picture?

    Business Lounges closed 25 December 2013 to 12 January 2014

    I wonder if the Intl F pax that are connecting onto a J (or even Y for that matter) Dom flight are being shown into the CL.
